Kentucky Clown Arrested After Nationwide Rash of Creepy Clown Sightings in Wooded Areas

A creepy clown, as depicted in a nationwide rash of such sightings of these makeup-clad demons purportedly luring kids into wooded areas, was taken into custody by Kentucky police Friday.

20-year-old Jonathan Martin’s arrest comes amid reports of suspicious clowns in at least six other states.

Mr. Martin had been seen crouched next to a wooded area near an apartment complex in the full clown get-up.

When an officer stopped, Martin started running.

He was charged with disorderly conduct and wearing a mask in public.
